I concur, the sooner we eliminate pgplot5, the better.

Hi Karl,

Thanks for your detailed summary, Ole.

To summarize, I would very much prefer to keep the package linked to
giza, and to fix the problems with giza when they appear in the wild.
But this is my personal opinion; the final decision is up to the package
maintainer (Gregor Herrmann, and the Debian Perl Group).

There's not much I can add. I also was happy that we can move libpgplot-perl
into Debian proper as giza is free software, and as there have been
no bug reports so far, I currently see no reason to revert this
change. Also thanks for your offer to help in fixing problems in case
they arise in the future.

Karl, in case you hit any concrete bugs in our libpgplot-perl linked
against giza, please don't hestitate to file a bug report.

Cheers,
gregor
